lonelybritAnd the weekend is almost here again, thank f**k for that, I need a holiday...
Fandom highlight of the week was when some blameless individual inadvertently caused the asking of the question: 'So, if you had to, Jensen Ackles or Bradley James?' A question that should have posed me no problems since I don't actually watch SPN. But then again I am not blind, I remember most of the first series fondly. Still, dude, Bradley James. Teh dilema! Fortunately the same blameless individual (who, purely for the sake of argument, we'll call![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
moonlettuce) offered up the compromise, i.e. not to think of it as Ackles vs Jame, more Ackles and James. 9 times out of 10 I couldn't quite get my head round this, the 1 time I could the mental visuals melted my brain.
Back to the other half of the coin and I was intrigued to see old-school pics of Colin Morgan during his 2 years at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama. It amuses me that although he must have been younger then than now, he actually looks older. Just. The attempt at facial fluff helps. It's also interesting because, with the facial fluff, I can actually imagine that, one day, maybe, yes, he would make a convincingly impressive older!Merlin. I wonder how old Merlin and Arthur will be when the BBC series finally comes to a close. *muses*

Date: 2009-01-16 08:47 pm (UTC)For reals, think about it. Comic Con and some of the Merlin lot have been invited. And Kripke's said yes to the Supernatural panel because he's a big ass geek, so Jensen, Jared and Misha are going along for the ride.
And Jensen thinks it'll be exactly the same as the other years with weird questions and screaming fangirls and people assuming he's sleeping with Jared. Again.
Only, it's not the same. Not the same because he's hanging around and watching the panel before theirs and blue eyes keep distracting him. Blue eyes and blond hair and fingers that are running through it. And all Jen can think of is what would happen if though fingers ran over something else.
And, yeah, this Comic Con's going to be much more interesting than usual...
